Overview
This HTS category, 9505.10.15.00, specifically classifies Christmas ornaments that are made of wood. This includes a wide range of decorative items intended for use during the Christmas season, such as figurines, baubles, decorative shapes, and other hanging ornaments, provided their primary material of construction is wood. The emphasis is on the material composition, distinguishing these items from ornaments made from other materials.
This category is differentiated from its sibling, 9505.10.25.00, which covers "Other" Christmas ornaments. This sibling category would encompass wooden ornaments that do not fit into more specific subcategories or those made from materials other than wood, such as plastic, glass, or metal. Therefore, the critical distinguishing factor is the predominant use of wood in the construction of the ornament.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories branching from 9505.10.15.00. Classification at this level is definitive based on the article being a Christmas ornament and its construction primarily from wood. Classification decisions should therefore focus on confirming the article's intended use as a Christmas ornament and its wooden composition, ensuring it does not fall under more general or alternative material classifications.
